Focusing on the Curricular Competencies in Math Strategies and Resources
Acknowledgement Try First Peoples Principles of Mathematical Teaching: http://blogs.sd41.bc.ca/math/curriculum/aboriginal-education/
Shape of the Day AGENDA Introductions-Math Mindset Video and Discussion (10 minutes) Goals and Challenges (10 minutes) Low floor high ceiling open-ended tasks Games for Fluency Using Number Talks
Goals and Challenges What is your GOAL for math in your class? (on pink) What CHALLENGES do you face? (on orange)
Do your goals include? Do your challenges include? Growth mindset in math? Students lacking numeracy? Engaging lessons? Daunting curriculum? Everyone can do math? Lack of resources? Students doing math at ZPD during the whole class? Kids at too wide a range of knowledge and skills? abilities
Lets try a Low floor high ceiling task... http://fawnnguyen.com/staircase-steepness/
Lets play a numeracy game How might we differentiate it? How can we adapt for different curricular areas?
How can we close gaps? What about students who are 2 or more years behind their grade level? Diagnose (use WDTK from Carole Fullerton s website, Leaps and Bounds, or Van Is assessment) Target whole number sense and understanding K- 5, go into fractions/decimals late Gr 5-7 Do at least 10 minutes a day of fluency practice AT THEIR LEVEL
Assessing with the Curricular Competencies Look at the Curricular Competencies bookmarks. Discuss how you might use each of the 3 strategies we have looked at to assessthe skills .
